A new collaboration work. The lyrics was provided by A good friend (Glen Cooper), He has sent me a whole bunch of lyrics. This one caught my attention. Listening through the BAIB Style picker. I came across two That got me going with this song.
1. Doowah.sty Doowah Doo-wop Gospel(minus the piano part).
2. Shooby.sty Shooby Doo Wop vocals(Just the organ part).

The Melody was created along with the chord progression within BAIB. Had to transpose them to F#. As the original key was not suitable for male AI vocals.
I did have a little problem with the 12/8 Time signature(sw8), when I transferred all to FL Studio With the Vocaloid Plugin. Ended up using 4/4 so that they would all sync.
The style, Is very retro (60's/70's). So has a very familiar sound from This era. Hope you like it.


Wanna Use Up All My Time With You

Everywhere you look it’s a picture
I just wanna use up all my time with you
Every landscape and every feature
I’ll give you the sky and I’ll, I’ll paint it blue

Every hour and every minute
I just wanna use up all my time with you
The oceans roll and then I’m in it
But with you I can just admire the view
~
(Chorus)
Don’t stay home now, and rock yourself to sleep
Love is our secret, you have my word
And beauty they say is only skin deep
Pain is a drug… Or haven’t you heard?
~
~Don’t tell me what. What you think I ain’t
Just tell me what. What I can do for you
Your lipstick, powder and paint
I could be anything you want me to
~
Now I don’t wanna appear rude, Oh no.
I just wanna use up. Use all my time with you
But if I could. Could only get you in the mood
Oh yeah, you in the mood

~
(Chorus) 2x
Don’t stay home now, and rock yourself to sleep
Love is our secret, you have my word
And beauty they say is only skin deep
Pain is a drug… Or haven’t you heard?

Last time
Oh I wanna spend time, spend time with you
~

Hi Robert,

Very nice song and very good use of that AI vocals.
And about the mood you tried to achieve, I think you succeeded on that!
Yes I do like this song, the lyrics and those vocals.

I noticed some minor things I want to inform you about.
At the start of the song the vocals were to far away, but only for some words.
The vocals are good, but I miss a bit of emotion in it.
I think some variation in the volume of the vocals can achieve that a bit more.

But a huge compliment from me for the result I heard here already.

Hans

Very nice work. The Ai vocalist was good, and blended well with the backing vocalists.

Thank you (Birchwood)very much for your kind comments. I'll take your suggestions on board on this project as well as future ones. I very much appreciate it. As much as I would like to put as much emotions into this, I believe this to not be an easily achievable situation when working with AI vocals. What I would like to see happening is:- A singer or two from within this wonderful group would have a listen and say!... I can to a much better job with the vocals on this, and take it on. Now that would be a really great feat to achieve.
Thank you all for taking the time to listen and comment. really appreciate it.

Hey Robert,

This genre was a little before my time but I do love this era of music. Great job with the production and I'm amazed at the high-quality of the background vocals.

A couple of suggestions:

There is a lag of about 6 seconds before the song intro. I would suggest you cut this out and re-render the file.

Include the lyrics when you submit a song. I personally add my lyrics in the "description" box of SoundCloud for each song. I put a lot of weight on lyrics and I'm a visual guy as well.

Overall, great job!

Dewey

Robert, you gave me a flashback in time and it was a wonderful trip! Note my wedding band use to play a number of songs like this.

Great job on that synth vocal.

Outstanding backing tracks!

This was a great memory trip song for me - Thanx for that!

Excelent lyrics, Mr, Cooper, and, WOW, what you've done with them, Robert. Just beautiful. Man, this is so good and brings back so many wonderful feelings listening to the radio. Outstanding harmony. DooWop and Shooby. All good choices.


Enjoy whatever happens!
